Feather # 3 — Magpie

“In this painting, I used soft washes of black and white to create a feather that feels both delicate and strong. The gentle transitions and layering give the piece a calming flow, while the splatters of pink and yellow add a touch of warmth and spontaneity. Painting this allowed me to convey a sense of gentle resilience, evoking a calm embrace that feels soothing to the soul.”  — Shayna, November 2022
